I haven't actually played the game yet, letting it pass due to the horrible reviews.
I'm willing to give it a try though with this new patch. At least it should be running smoothly…
I'm hoping they want to do a second patch, that focuses on gameplay and story, but with JoWoods bankruptcy I doubt that's likely.

I don't know if they could do much to change the gameplay with a patch.

Definitely let us know how you find it.

Looks like the patch is available for download already. There's also a release trailer.
Download here.

I actually bought it and just tested it.
Didn't realize how good Risen looked until now.
Not really any problems (in 5 minutes or less.) There is the slight hitching as textures are loaded but very playable. phenomII x4 945, nvidia250, 4gb ram, ocz agility ssd, win7 64.
Its basically like G3 after the community patch. Even better, I didn't run into that utterly annoying font bug.
Seems like it will be fun enough for 2.50.
… now that I played a bit more it really is quite good. 2.50 well spent.

I am struggling to fing the teleporter stone in venguard after the patch. They say it is supposed to be in a tower in vengaurd but i cant find it.
EDIT: Found it. Looks like i have to do multiple trips to venguard to get it.

Yeah, i bet it was piranha bytes intention to have an alternate ending to that quest. Shame though the rest fo the game was really good. I just beat it, it is very playable now.

Let me know if the patch makes the game bearable.
